Method for making figures/stripes on an article and the article made by the method

Abstract

A method for making figures/stripes on an article, including steps of: preparing a substrate; wrapping an outer surface of the substrate with a fiberglass fabric drenched with resin; placing at least one thin or slender covering material on an outer face of the fiberglass fabric, the substrate, fiberglass fabric and the covering material together forming a wrapping body; using a binding means to bind the wrapping body to harden and pattern the fiberglass fabric; taking off the binding means after the wrapping body is hardened and patterned, whereby the fiberglass fabric is hardened to form an inner layer, the covering material positioned on the inner layer and forming the figures/strips; painting an outer resin on an outer face of the wrapping body after the outer resin is hardened; and buffing the hardening layer to complete the article.

1. A method for making figures/stripes on an article, comprising steps of:
 (1) preparing an article as a substrate on which the figures/stripes are to be made; 
 (2) wrapping a portion or portions of the surface of the substrate with a fiberglass fabric drenched with resin, the figures/stripes being to be made on the portion or portions; 
 (3) placing at least one covering material on an exterior of the fiberglass fabric, the at least one covering material forming the figures/strips, the at least one covering material being a thin or slender body independent from the substrate, after the substrate is wrapped by the fiberglass fabric and the covering material, the substrate, fiberglass fabric and the covering material together forming a wrapping body; 
 (4) using a binding means to bind the outer circumference of the wrapping body, the binding means being wound around the wrapping body to harden and pattern the fiberglass fabric; 
 (5) taking off the binding means after the wrapping body is hardened and patterned, the fiberglass fabric being hardened and patterned to form an inner layer, the covering material being positioned on the outer face of the inner layer; 
 (6) painting an outer resin on an exterior of the wrapping body and forming a transparent hardening layer around the wrapping body by hardening the outer resin; and 
 (7) buffing the hardening layer and completing the article which presents the figures/stripes of the covering material.

     4. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the covering material is a material containing fibers. 
   
   
     5. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the covering material is a material selected from a group consisting of fabric, paper, leaf, wood and bamboo. 
   
   
     6. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the covering material is selected from a group consisting of metal and non-iron metal material. 
   
   
     7. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the covering material is polymer material. 
   
   
     8. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the thickness or diameter of the covering material is smaller than 2 mm. 
   
   
     9. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the substrate is a patterned article having a certain hardness, the article totally or partially having a regular solid geometric profile. 
   
   
     10. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the substrate is an article made of a material selected from a group consisting of iron and non-iron metal material. 
   
   
     11. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the substrate is an article made of polymer material. 
   
   
     12. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the substrate is an article made of wooden or bamboo material. 
   
   
     13. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the substrate is an article made of ceramic/enamel material. 
   
   
     14. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in step 4, the wrapping body is hardened and patterned at room temperature. 
   
   
     15. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the wrapping body is hardened and patterned at a temperature below the critical heat-resistant temperature of the substrate. 
   
   
     16. The method for making the figures/stripes on the article as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in step 6, the outer resin is hardened at room temperature.
